Synopsis

From the teenage years to retirement, each phase of life presents different challenges and new experiences.

Examining the patterns of development throughout the lifespan, the authors provide key insights into how we experience the world, and they examine how established theories have been challenged by recent changes to the understanding of human development.

Whatever your level of study, this absorbing introduction will give you a deeper appreciation of the different life phases and how psychological principles aid our understanding of them.

About this title

Review

'Hendry & Kloep's work is beautifully written and reads as smoothly and easily as a general magazine article (though, it should be swiftly added, with far greater intellectual content). Warmly recommended.' - Ian Stuart-Hamilton, Professor of Developmental Psychology, University of Glamorgan   'Hendry and Kloep have written an important book. With adolescence lasting longer, and the transition to adulthood becoming more blurred and uncertain, to have a book on "Adolescence and Adulthood" is timely indeed. I can recommend this book to all who have an interest in human development at times of social change.' - Dr John Coleman, Senior Research Fellow, Department of Education, University of Oxford
